I'm Shenji, what are you doing?

Lorelaia is indeed worthy of her title of "Lonely Queen", she does what she says, and she puts it into action very quickly.

In the early morning after her fight with Shinji, she ordered the aftermath personnel of the Legal Affairs Section to tightly block the news, and immediately went to the Legal Affairs Section headquarters to urgently meet with the current head of Barthemero.

At the ensuing meeting of lords, Barthemero changed his previous attitude of "icing on the cake" of aiding El-Meloy, directly publicly supported Kenneth, and fully supported Kenneth. His clear attitude made the three nobles Tremberio and Baru Yerretta were caught off guard.

With the support of Bartholomew, Kenneth was full of momentum and sang triumphant songs all the way. Not only did it successfully stabilize El-Meloy's position, but it also caused some hostile forces to spit out some of their embezzled assets. It also revealed several new technologies to further enhance its prestige.

After the meeting of lords, Lorelaia, who had been waiting for a long time, approached Kenneth. Kenneth had received a report from Shinji in advance and had already anticipated Lorelaia's visit, so the two big shots who were also known as "geniuses" and attracted the attention of the Clock Tower began to bargain over a certain killer who had inherited an ancient mystery. .

Shenji gave Kenneth only three bottom lines:

First, I belong to El-Meloy and am your trump card. You can only accept employment and cannot sell me.

Second, I won't negotiate terms with Lorelaiya. I will ask you for whatever I want. I don't care what you can earn from Lorelaiya. Even if you make ten times or a hundred times the profit, it is still yours.

Third, do not leak information related to the Holy Grail War.

Others, such as whether to reveal his true identity and how to cooperate, are left to Kenneth's discretion. In a word, he can get as many benefits as he wants. There are not many opportunities to rip off the first family of the Clock Tower.

After several days of on-and-off negotiations, Kenneth "rented" Shen Er for a good price, and Lorelaia also successfully obtained information about Shen Er.

A limited verification through Barthemero's intelligence network verification - In the Far East where Japan is located, the Clock Tower is weak, and it is difficult for even Barthemero to extend his tentacles there, so it is a limited verification - Although Shinji's real age surprised Lorelaiya, she still decided to pay a visit in person to show her sincerity. By the way, she could also see the young teacher who caused the new trend, which could be said to kill two birds with one stone.

But she never expected that what awaited her would be a series of surprises and even frightening blows.

Putting aside the simple rental house, in her opinion, the daily life of these two people whom she spoke highly of should be like this.

Either reading a book and wandering in the ocean of knowledge; or doing experiments and pursuing the truth of magic; or practicing hard to improve one's own strength; even if it is leisure time, the two of them should drink black tea and discuss some strange things.

But as a result, before I even entered the door, I heard two people yelling, and the words were in Japanese of unknown meaning. Although Lorelei was erudite and knew all the mainstream languages ​​​​in the world, she could only speak and write. To such an extent, it is really difficult for her to understand the special language of the second dimension.

"This is too unseemly." Loreleia muttered in a low voice. If it weren't for the young lady from the Archizolti family who was following her and saw the Mercury Maid at the entrance, she almost thought she was in the wrong place.

When I entered the room, I saw two men wearing cheap T-shirts and shorts, sitting in front of the game console and playing games intently. Before she could recover from the contrast, Target jumped up in cheers and made a silly pose.

Fortunately, as the heir of Barthemero, Lorelaia has seen all kinds of magicians. Just loving to play games is nothing, at least it is much better than those weirdos with disgusting hobbies.

Thinking of this, Lorelaia felt much better, and then Shenji's words declared her presence.

Lorelaia is quite satisfied with the next development.

Weber Velvet made a good impression on her, and her evaluation of the students was also very accurate. It would be better if she could dress decently.

Although Shenji only said one sentence, it dispelled Loreleia's doubts. This boy was indeed the person she was looking for.

Just when Lorelaiya was relieved and ready to introduce herself as usual and then get to the point, the biggest shock happened.

The handshake she extended to introduce herself was an internationally accepted handshake. Unexpectedly, this bastard actually gave her a standard hand kiss.

Environment: Indoor.

Corresponding etiquette level: upper-class people with noble status.

Kissing part: The middle part of the finger, and the lips are not really touching.

The etiquette itself is impeccable, but Shinji got the most critical point wrong. The hand kissing ceremony is only applicable to married women. Unmarried women, especially young girls, must not use this etiquette.

If used——

Whether it was treating the other party as a married woman or simply being ignorant, it was a huge faux pas, even more serious than when Barthelmero was mocked in front of Lorelaia a few days ago.

Therefore, Lorelaia exploded on the spot. Fortunately, she still had some sense and only used low-level magic like "Storm Shooter", which prevented any damage to the building structure.

Of course, Weber's house was inevitably affected. Half of the sofa, some newspapers and miscellaneous books, half of the curtains, and messy traces were left on the walls and sofa, making it look quite miserable.

In contrast, Shenji, who was directly hit by magic, was in much better condition. However, the off-brand sportswear he bought casually in the UK was cut into strips of beggar's clothes, and his body was intact.

The so-called "Storm Shooter" is a magic trick that condenses the rotating airflow into magic bullets and launches them in a series. It has the characteristics of high accuracy, little damage to the environment, and free retractability. The power of magic is determined by the attributes and level of the magician, and it is one of the most commonly used magic by Lorelaia.

At Lorelaia's current level, "Storm Shooter" is equivalent to a miniature typhoon in her hands. It will not be directly fatal. It is normal for a few bones to be broken by a direct hit.

Shinji is able to keep his body intact thanks to his extraordinary ability to control magic. Even if Tsuruya eats a golden apple, he can resist one or two bars of magic. His physical fitness is much higher than that of Tsuruya, and Shinji who insists on exercising every day will only be better.

At this stage, Shinji's magic power rating based on the Servant Panel should be classified as C-level, which means that magic that can be chanted for less than two verses is invalidated, and it is unable to defend against large-scale magic such as grand magic and ceremonial incantations. However, this C level is not as absolute as the Servant's job skills. There is a difference in compatibility. Water-based magic with good compatibility can be raised to C+, while those with poor compatibility can be reduced to C-.

Lorelaia's "Storm Shooter" is a two-bar chanting magic with an ordinary nature, and it happens to be within the range of Shenji's ineffectiveness, so Shenji just carried it and let Lorelaia vent his dissatisfaction.

This move became a sign of responsibility in Lorelaia's eyes, and her anger went away as quickly as it came.

After the last whip whipped Shinji away, Lorelaia walked to the destroyed sofa and began to use magic to restore the damaged items. That hateful bastard was so responsible, and I, the dignified Lorelaiya, naturally have the same sense of responsibility.

The girl who was focused on the aftermath did not see the eye contact between Shinji and Weber hanging on the wall, otherwise she would have destroyed the entire room.

The translation of eye contact is -

"Well done, the console and cassette are saved."

"That's right. These are the treasures I brought from Japan with great difficulty. It would be a pity to destroy them."

Shinji smiled.

Weber gave a thumbs up.

The friendship between the two is unbreakable, and everything is left unsaid.

PS: Rin once used magic to repair the glass in Shirou's house. Lorelaia's level is only higher than lower.
